Web Browser

The SAS System requires:

• Netscape Navigator, Version 4.08 or Netscape Communicator, Version 4.7 or higher

For best performance, Netscape Communicator, Version 4.7.3 or higher is recommended.

The latest version of Netscape can be downloaded from:http://home.netscape.com/computing/download/index.html

Note: Netscape Communicator, Version 6, Preview Releases 1 and 2 have not been extensively tested with the SAS System and there are known incompatibilities between Netscape Communicator, Version 6 and the SAS System; therefore, Netscape Communicator, Version 6, Preview Releases 1 and 2 are not supported in this release.

Java Runtime Environment

Some features of the SAS System require the use of a Java Runtime Environment (also referred to as a JRE, Java Virtual Machine, or JVM) to function properly. Determine that you have at least the following version or release of the Java Runtime Environment:

• Java Version: 1.3.1

This is the version of the JRE that SAS has tested and supports. Later patch-levels and versions of this JRE may work; however, they have not been tested by SAS.

You can install a supported JRE from the Third Party Software CD included in your Installation Kit. In addition, you can obtain a copy of the JRE via the Internet from the following URL:

http://www.ibm.com/java/jdk/aix/index.html

Hardware Requirements

Machines Supported

• All models that support AIX, Release 5.1 for Power 3, Power 4, or RS64 architectures• RISC System/6000 series computers

Distribution Media

• CD-ROM

Memory Requirements

For general SAS activities (for example, query and reporting, simple statistics, data manipulation), we recommend 96 MB per user.

More memory is needed for memory-intensive tasks such as OLAP, data mining, heavy statistical analysis, multivariate analysis, formats, and any GUI-based applications. Please see the Specific Products Requirements section for more details on memory requirements for specific products.••

Terminals Supported

• Any X Windows-based terminal or server that supports a minimum of 256 colors

Interfaces to Other Graphics Software

Included with SAS/GRAPH software is a series of drivers that can produce Computer Graphics Metafiles (CGM) in binary, character, and clear-text formats. These drivers can be used to transfer SAS/GRAPH output to other products that support CGM input, such as Word for Windows, WordPerfect for Windows, Harvard Graphics, and Lotus Freelance, or to devices that can process CGM input.

SAS/GRAPH software can also generate encapsulated PostScript vector files, which can be exported to word processing packages such as Microsoft Word, WordPerfect, and several others.

Many other graphics and word processing applications can process files in Hewlett-Packard (HP-GL) format. The HPGL driver can be used to produce files that can be transferred to most applications that can process HP-GL files. In addition, there are drivers for PDF, PBM, PPM, GIF, JPEG, EMF, WMF, PNG, TIFF, EPSI, and PaintBrush image formats. To view a complete list of all SAS/GRAPH device drivers, submit the following SAS program:

proc gdevice c=sashelp.devices nofs; list _all_;run; quit;

SAS/GRAPH software can also export graphics in the following formats:

BMP - Microsoft Windows Bitmap EPS - Encapsulated PostScript GIF - Graphics Interchange FormatPNG - Portable Network GraphicsPPM - Portable Pixmap PS - PostScript Bitmap TIF - Tagged Image File Format XPM - X11 Pixmap JPG - JPEG Files XBM - X11 Bitmap
